[albatrossklr]

Have not seen a post by E-Mike for a while.. And, would like to find one of his heralded fork braces. Almost dumped it on the trail and do believe a brace will help. Are you out there sir? albatross a bit sore from wrestling the thing yesterday

All, Thanks for the feed back, I knew the rear should lock... Heck .. If I can skid the tires on my Explorer (91 mind you ) my '05 should do it also...

No skid, no Pass. Now every two years you pull up outside the Inspection building , they check the horn, tires, the lights, brake light, your credentials and your on your way. Works for Me. ;> [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
